Easy and addictive language-learning

With Duolingo, learning a new language is comfortable and engaging. You can choose from a vast selection of languages, compete with friends, and practice speaking, reading, listening, and writing skills.

Bite-sized lessons

Duolingo is a free and entertaining language learning app that offers courses for many different dialects from around the world.

The lessons on Duolingo are designed in a way that allows you to practice your language skills on-the-go. The games are short and sweet, and you can open the app no matter where you are to learn new basic verbs, phrases, and sentences.

Learning a new language can be intimidating, but not with Duolingo. The gamification of lessons is entertaining and very effective. Thirty-four hours of practice time on this app is equivalent to one semester of a university-level foreign language class.

The app is easy to use and aesthetically pleasing. Each language program is split into different levels, with lessons that take less than 10 minutes to complete. In each stage you identify what pictures match with words, translate sentences, and type dictations.

Before you can advance to the next level, you must pass a practice test. If you already have some experience with a particular language, complete a diagnostic test and jump a few levels.

While this app is an excellent way to learn the basics and practice a new language, you shouldn’t expect to become completely fluent. There are limited options for those who have a more advanced level of skill.

Where can you run this program?

This program runs on Android 5.1 and higher.

Is there a better alternative?

No. Among apps for basic language learning, this is an excellent option. The gamelike lessons separate this program from alternatives such as Rosetta Stone and Babbel because they’re quick, addicting, and accessible for all users.

Our take

This app is a great tool for learning the basics of a new language though it doesn’t offer enough educational resources for advanced users.

Should you download it?

Yes, there’s always time to learn something new, and Duolingo makes language education fun and entertaining. The short lessons are easy, fast, and effective.
